Simple Solution

The hanging rope broke on my old bird feeder so I decided to knit an i-cord to replace it. My big cone of Sugar and Cream cotton is great for such around the house little projects. I have a washcloth & basket knit up with it as well.
The i-cord...so simple yet so many uses! Check out this link for how to knit an i-cord.The pattern for 'Joy' will be up by this weekend. I've been battling sickness after sickness in our house with myself and the girls. Maybe it has to do with not being adjusted to the frigid New Hampshire weather yet??
Yesterday was the first day it was below freezing all day. The birds are going to have to wait for Spring to use their birdbath.

Joy!

Here's a little dress for the holidays. Great for layering and dressing up or down. My daughter just loves wearing this dress. Knit in Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Superwash 100% wool, it has great bounce while jumping up & down.
I should retake some photos for a more seasonal feel here in New Hampshire. Something to add to the ever growing "To Do" list.
But for now, here is 'Joy', basking in the sun of Southern California. Pattern will be posted in PDF format for download shortly!

Autumn

My first published pattern is finally available to see on Knit on the Net!
I just loved working with Cocoon from Rowan. Such a beautiful yarn.

It is modelled in the largest size and shown with the buttons in the front but can also be worn with the buttons in back and a center cable in the front.
